Grouping slides

Usually PowerMerge repeats each slide with fields for each record on a combined merge. Sometimes you will need, instead, that slides are grouped together before repeating them.

For example, assume that you are creating a catalog of your products and that each product requires three slides: Description, Benefits and  Features. Without grouping the slides the result will be the one shown on the diagram below:

To get the desired result, you should instead use the 'Keep with next' option from the ribbon tab and apply it to Slide 1 and Slide 2 of the original presentation.
